No, the popular commercial programs do not do this, likely because it takes a lot longer to produce a higher quality rip than one of average quality. While fully accessible, EAC has so many configuration options that it is a geek's paradise.
There is a lot of documentation available online in accessible format. The program can be operated from the keyboard, and all the menus can be accessed with a screen reader.
